Re: The real "will Mack sign" thread - no CFB discussion

Hate hate hate this move......now I don't know the ins and the outs, I don't think anyone knows what was on the table, but it seems to me that Mack side were asking for X with X garunteed, and the raiders couldn't match or didn't want to match, but it seems there have been no give and take negotiations. For me it's all on Mack, you are still under contract, I don't believe reggie is stupid enough to low ball him so much that it's not even close to discuss about. I think Mack is just being greedy and knows he can get paid one way or the other, i.e. Stay and get the contract he wants or leave and go to a team that is desperate and get paid. If Mack wanted to be a raider I believe there would be more discussions between raiders and Mack but all I hear and read about is how little discussion there is (whether this is the truth or not who knows, but I can only go on what I read and see) and the offer has been on the table since may and nothing else has happened. Although I hate the sound of the trade, I'm a raider fan not a fan of an individual player, and this seems like a move that is bad short term but good long term and I will be pissed for a while, but think if someone wanted to play for us they would take a deal that wouldn't damage our cap so much or at least work things that make it team friendly!.........Gutted absolutely gutted! No ill feelings towards Mack fully understand from his personal view, this could be his last pay day......just not good for us fans. So I'm pissed off but think the trade will help the team! I'm good with it but hate the idea haha!

My opinion is based on media speculation and reports, so who knows I could be way off and reggie maybe a low balling moron, but who knows what is really going on behind the scenes I just wish I knew! Good or bad!

The Raiders have simply given permission for talks to open up with the Bears, they still have to reach a deal.

Let's put ourselves in Khalil's shoes for a moment. I'm sure him and his camp thought there was no way this would happen. Khalil now needs to weigh up whether winning a Super Bowl and finishing what he started with Carr is more important to him than getting paid huge money because let's face it, the deal either team will give him will ensure he is arguably set up for life.

I'm simply gutted by the news, I've sat here for two hours not knowing what to think, but I still have hope he opts for the Raiders. I won't give up hope until he signs on the dotted line for Chicago.

I feel for you, but you gotta accept the move. Mack is not coming back and Raiders aren't getting him back.
